Ok. Are those HSF bulky? If they're BIG, my mothers friend would probably mind :(
But anyways, I'll get back to you soon :)
Nice deal for D2OL XS.org :)

Nice deal for D2OL XS.org :)
Ok I just did my math and with 1euro= 1.23 dollars that means I need to pay 72 euros to match your 99$ required
So jeff, in 1 month time, will you still be able to get them for me? I'll have the nessesairy money then :)
Just curious Jeff... How many sets do we have confirmed for order so far?
Wow... this will be a real kick in the nuts for our stats!!!!! :up: Good job Jeff!
Send me the bill for any cost that you might be incurring... I'll spot you half ;) <<Seriously...
so tempting... time to check out mobo's and see if I am going to order ;)
edit: just checked out waterblock and mobo pricing, I will most likely be ordering :toast:
Thinking out loud here - I want to publicize this further, get more peeps on the bandwagon, but I don't know if a front page news item would be a good idea . . . I mean, as long as it's XS peeps wanting orders that'd be fine, but I'd hate to have a bunch of new registers coming in here just to get cheap Xeons . . .
Anyways Jeff, your call, lemme know :cool:
Actually, the starting bid on all of LapCompute's LV Xeon auctions is $99. So, if there are non-XS types that are interested in the deal, then they may as well try their luck on eBay.... my opinion, anyway. :D But then, I've already payed for my share of this deal. :slobber:
Personally, I'd rather keep it here in the D2OL section. I don't want Gabriel(the eBay guy) to think we are taking advantage of him or somehow making money off of him.Quote:

What are you guys waiting for???? Go for it ;)
Sexy blocks! :devil:
As soon as I have extra money I want to try a set myself.
Jeff you are a madman! ;) Good luck, my Xeons are still crunching away.
6 :eek: and it's only Sunday!!!!! I'm sure there are lots of people who haven't even seen this yet! :up:Quote:

Jeff, lol I'm back with more question... :p
If I save up the money for them could you "hunt" me down a mobo for them when I get the money together(as said say in one month time) So meaning I buy the cpu's via you, and you hunt me down a mobo, I'll even throw in a few bucks for you :p for the effort :)
I'm in need of a Dual rig anyways for when I go to school next year( 3D modeling and animation here my rig comes :banana: :banana: :banana: )
:)
thanks in advance for answering my pesky questions :)
Wow this is amazingly tempting. Just to have a smp rig would make me extremely happy. Put together a whole dualie system for around ~$500 hmm.
yhea and since you amerikaboys pay 500$ we euro boys can pay 400 euros or something for them :)
SO if I was you I'd get as many euro people involved as possible because it's more affordable for them :)
And I promise, once I get the beastie I'll be running D2OL ALL DAY AND ALL NIGHT :)
*but only if I can get it quiet AND cool :)
I consider myself "kind-of-an-anti-intel-guy" ( coming from times when Commodore Amiga was "at war" with Atari ST and PC ) :lol: but this sound really tempting....
I will know for sure If I sign up for it by Tuesday ;)
Thanks Jeff for digging that deal out for us :toast:
Anybody mailing their payment should get it out tomorrow if you want to make sure it arrives in time for the order. I am going to place the order this Saturday so please try to have the payment here by then. And PayPal payments would be nice to have by or on Friday.
I just want to make sure anyone who wants a pair of these, gets a pair. :up:
:eek:Quote:

Whew! You had me worried for a sec there... I just paid for a pair of 'those'. :slobber:
So Jeff this seems to be a better deal than the 2.4's. What do you think?
Not sure yet. I have a pair of those 2.4GHz Xeons on their way for testing. As soon as they arrive I'll put 1.6v to them and see what happens. The only problem I see is getting them to boot at 200MHz FSB since they will have to run at 18x200 for a split second(the PC-DL BIOS puts the multiplier to default before the actual setting kicks in).
Can't wait to try them to be honest. :)
Yeah but if I wait for your review of those then I will miss out on this deal. What to do What to do.
Sounds insane, but it shouldn't be a problem. My 1.6GHz D1s booted no problem at 220FSB with default voltage! Didn't even try higher, for all I know they could've gone to 233FSB.Quote:
